With Mrs. Hudson gone from their lives and domestic chaos building, the last thing Mary Russell and her husband, Sherlock Holmes, need is to help an old friend with her mad and missing aunt.

Lady Vivian Beaconsfield has spent most of her adult life in one asylum after another, since the loss of her brother and father in the Great War. And although her mental state seemed to be improving, she’s now disappeared after an outing from Bethlem Royal Hospital...better known as Bedlam.

Russell wants nothing to do with the case - but she can’t say no. And at least it will get her away from the challenges of housework and back to the familiar business of investigation. To track down the vanished woman, she brings to the fore her deductive instincts and talent for subterfuge - and of course enlists her husband’s legendary prowess. Together, Russell and Holmes travel from the grim confines of Bedlam to the winding canals and sun-drenched Lido cabarets of Venice - only to find the foreboding shadow of Benito Mussolini darkening the fate of a city, an era, and a tormented English lady of privilege.

Excellent story-would’ve been better if the woman narrating didn’t use a caustic, harsh, severe voice of a fifty year old disapproving school mistress for every female character, including Mary, a twenty something…

Awful narration

Good story line but, boom, it ended abruptly and a little prematurely. it would have been better had we seen the villain get his come-uppance at home, not just leave all that to our imagination. Measured but blunt control by Mycroft or public exposure and shame would have been so much more satisfying. Only one more chapter, just one?

story ends too abruptly

Some times you just want to read a fun book. This series of Mary Russel books is entertaining. It kept me completely engaged.

So good. Again with history and fiction emerging I had to do some research on Cole Porter. One item leads you into a rabbit hole of interior g history that I did not know

Wonderful how this one turned out!

Excellent

Think Mary and the detective don't get involved in Personal affairs? This adventure combines challenges that would fit right into modern day politics but with the flair of the roaring twenties. Look for the gold costume atthe end.

Modern story keeps legend alive
